This all sounds like the script for a VH1 movie, but the wild thing is that not only works, it works smashingly - a bewildering amalgam of sounds and attitudes that shouldn't fit together, but defy all odds and do. This record bubbles over with imagination, as hooky pop songs like the title track rub shoulders with glitzy dancefloor anthems like and sexy, swaggering arena rock redux like before delving into weird confessionals like , and Forget that this isn't what anybody would have expected to do; it's hard to imagine anybody else that would have the idea and the inclination to blend late-'80s, metal-spiked album rock with modern hip-hop and dance, then dress it up with dazzling modern pop production, all the while not avoiding painful subjects or melody. If that's not an artistic statement, I don't know what is, and the damn thing is there hasn't been a record in the mainstream this vibrant or this alive in a long, long time.

's gravelly tenor and come-hither rhymes did the rest. Though Paula Abdul's "Straight Up" had the number one spot locked during February 1989, settled for number two and eventually sold many more copies, over two million.

Sommige mensen hebben teveel vrije tijd

quote:

A good example of an album which is overrated to a degree that is surreal. One suspects that this has little to do with the music, and more to do with the mind set of the overrater on first hearing it. Badly sung, poorly played, mediocre, and in comparison to many albums released the same year, VERY conventional in musical terms. Of course the fans will never agree, they lost their critical capacity some time ago.

quote:

The production standard on this album is below anything I have ever heard exept on the other albums. 's voice is laughable and the playing of the band is also comical. The songs here are only of an average standard at best. is far too simple. , , and are OK. This is of historical relevance, apparently but musically it is not up to scratch with a lot which is produced today. This is the high point in the bands' career though, it gets absolutely unlistenable on the next album!

quote:

This is one of those records that you encounter and wonder what your life was prior to having it.
They appear to experiment with something different on every track. Each of this could have been followed up to make an album on their own merit, however they are not short of ideas and will change course on every track A whole book could not show imagary, poetry and all out chaos like . speaking of something no-one today would have the guts to speak of so openly, let alone when this record was put together. on this track did not care what was said. producing the album was not about to stop him, he knew that "people preferred it that way" and are backed up by the power of drums, with keeping all the mayhem together with his guiter. A truely amazing album will improve the more you listion to it and that is certainly true of this.

This is one of the few exceptions to the rule. Not only is this album an obvious influence on virtually all alternative/indie groups of any note, it would still be ahead of its time if released today.

In reality, second album couldn't be better timed; with pull The Darkness currently busy cracking America and fan-bashing in LA, the coast is clear for them to regain their title as kings of ferociously dumb-shit, brilliant gonzo-rock. Only thing is, they've gone and made their 'serious' album instead. From subdued colour-tinted cover (which gives more than a knowing nod to Led Zeppelin's 'Houses Of The Holy') to the fact that it's been produced by the Zep's token boring member, John Paul Jones, this album feels more like an education than a party.

We'll return to what exactly went wrong on that fateful August Bank Holiday weekend a little later, but first, let's remember what the world was like when we first got so very, very excited about these so very, very hairy men from New Zealand who liked to stand on top of their amps, pull cock-rock poses and make wonderfully nonsensical noises about "harmonic generators" and "intermodulators". Cue rose-tinted, Super 8 film of kids sporting electroclash mullets, studded belts and Motörhead T-shirts walking through Shoreditch in summer 2002... ah yes, back then, it was all so different. After five years of dickless Coldplay swine and big-budget American emo-angst we were practically anaemic for any kind of no-brain, no-frills, throbbing rock'n'roll thrills. For Dolf, Christian, Matt and Phil it was definitely a case of right noise, right moment.

will forever be haunted by comparisons to the Smiths, especially since lead singer Martin Rossiter favors the same strangled croon and tortured loneliness of Morrissey. Nevertheless, under the direction of guitarist Steve Mason, developed a tougher sound than the Smiths, drawing not only from the fey tradition of British indie-pop, but also from the three-chord raunch of the Faces, the working-class punk of the Jam and the soulful stomp of Motown. Most critics didn't hear such subtle differences, and opinions on the group's worth were fiercely divded upon the release of the group's first single in 1994, with the band earning as many detractors as supporters. Amidst such divided reaction, developed a devoted following which helped them become one of the leading artists of the Brit-pop second tier in 1995, even if the band had trouble breaking into the States.

Until the release of the group's debut album, , in the spring of 1995, had continued to build momentum, partially because Martin Rossiter had adopted Morrissey's technique of giving articulate, outrageous and witty interviews. , however, was greeted with mixed reviews, and although the group had a sizable fan base — the album debuted in the Top Ten — they were soon overshadowed by the legions of groups that popped up in the wake of Blur and Oasis' success.

The Starlings were a nom de studio for singer and multi-instrumentalist , a New Zealand native who released two albums under this name in the early '90s as but one stop on a surprisingly varied musical journey.

was born in Christchurch, New Zealand, in 1965 and taught himself guitar as a teenager. At the tender age of 18, joined the already successful new wave band the Dance Exponents as a second guitarist in 1983, staying long enough to record three albums with them: Prayers Be Answered, Great Expectations, and Amplifier. Facing slipping popularity, the group split up and followed the group's drummer, ex-Psychedelic Furs Vince Ely, to Los Angeles, where both guested on the first solo album by Ely's then-girlfriend, Jane Wiedlin. moved from Los Angeles to London in 1987 and began recording one-man-band records under the Starlings name two years later. After a promising first EP, Letters From Heaven, released through the Rough Trade label in 1990 (which gained some indie chart notoriety for a ripping cover of the Byrds' classic "Wasn't Born to Follow"), signed to Anxious Records, the vanity label founded by ex-Eurythmics Dave Stewart. (:) had become the house engineer at Stewart's studio.) The Starlings' first full-length release, Valid, wasn't released until 1992, however, not least because had become a fairly serious heroin addict during his early years in England. The album was written and recorded while was still using , but he successfully completed rehab the same week the album was released.

Although Valid scored good reviews, it did not sell, a state of affairs blamed squarely on his record label. Rather than stew in private, poured out his angst on the seething Too Many Dogs, a festival of no-minced-words venom that makes Nine Inch Nails sound like Sunday school teachers. Unamused, Anxious Records buried the album, let record a follow-up, then refused to release it and unceremoniously dropped him.
